State the domain and range of the relation below.

{(1, -2), (4, 5), (2, -4), (6,5), (2, 2)}
A domain = {1, 2, 4, 6) and range = {-4, -2, 2,5}
B domain = {-4, -2, 2, 5} and range = {1, 2, 4, 6}
c domain = {-2, 1, 2, 4, 5} and range = {-4, 2, 2, 5, 6}
D domain = {-4, 2, 2, 5, 6} and range = {-2, 1, 2, 4,5}

Answer:

The answer you are looking for is A.

Explanation:

Remember, the domain is a set of working x values or all possible inputs of a function or two variable relationship. The range is a set of working y values or all possible outputs of a function or two variable relationship. A two variable relationship with more than one output for each input will not be a function in general but will be refered to as inverse.

Now given a set of coordinates for this relation, coordinates with x and y values or inputs and outputs are generally cartesian coordinates represented by (x,y). This is so we know the working x value for each y value, also making it easier to graph it on a coordinate plane or visualize it. x = domain (input of a function) , y = range (output of a function).

All you have to do is sort the x and y values you are given from the coordinates.

For instance, (-1,2) and (4,5) : domain of -1 and 4 [the x values], range of 2, and 5 [the y values].
